Shorter maturities were steadier: the 2-year Treasury rate sits at 4.15 percent versus 4.18 percent a month ago, while the 6-month slipped from 3.95 percent to 3.94 percent and the 4-week Treasury bill rate edged up from 3.73 percent to 3.79 percent.

Last week brought declines across nearly every maturity. The 10-year Treasury rate fell to 4.63 percent from 4.69 percent, the 2-year Treasury rate dropped from 4.25 percent to 4.15 percent, and the 3-year eased from 4.31 percent to 4.20 percent. The 5-year slipped from 4.40 percent to 4.32 percent, the 7-year from 4.53 percent to 4.47 percent, the 20-year from 5.22 percent to 5.20 percent, and the 1-year from 4.06 percent to 3.97 percent. The 30-year Treasury yield held almost flat, moving from 5.22 percent to 5.21 percent.

On Thursday, August 13, 2026, the 30-year Treasury yield stands at 5.21 percent, down from 5.24 percent yesterday. The 4-week Treasury bill rate is 3.79 percent and the 6-month is 3.94 percent. Measured against one year ago, the 10-year rate of 4.63 percent is higher than the 4.24 percent recorded on August 13, 2025, and the 30-year at 5.21 percent compares with 4.83 percent then. The Treasury yield curve is upward sloping, rising from 3.79 percent at the 4-week maturity to 5.21 percent at 30 years, with no inversions; the 30-year sits just above the 20-year at 5.20 percent.
